yesss, maintaining momentum is an overlooked part of cycling. obviously don't just ignore traffic rules completely and blow through intersections, but losing all momentum especially before a big hill SUCKS

then you have to reaccelerate to speed match the cars around you, honestly it feels unsafe on the faster streets.

 

It seems like a kind of a paradox that online video games are held accountable for servers that they have nothing to do with, but meanwhile a browser can be truly open and doesn't have to employ any restrictions like age verification, or banning ips? Not even China goes after the browser level.

woah man, posting answers to tests online is cheating and can get you expelled!

 

I've kinda just had a thought, I don't know if it's horrible or not, so you tell me.

  • 3d terrain in video games is commonly starts with a fractal perlin noise function.
  • This doesn't look very good alone, so some passes are employed to make it look better, such as changing the scale.
  • One such technique is employing hydraulic erosion with a heavy gpu simulation, to create riverbeds and folds in terrain.
  • However hydraulic erosion is VERY slow, and is as such not viable for a game like Minecraft that works in real time. It also doesn't chunk well.

But what if it didn't have to? Why not train something like a diffusion image model off of thousands of pre-rendered high quality simulations, and then have it transform a function like fractal perlin noise? Basically "baking" a terrain pass inside a neural network. This'd still be slow, but slower than simulating thousands of rain droplets? It could easily be deterministic to loop across chunk borders too. You could even train off of real world GIS data.

Has this been tried before?

With the forever experimental "Horizontal swipe for next post" setting on, sometimes I will swipe and due to a bug it will randomly take me out of the post and reset my scroll to when I clicked on the first post.

I'd like it if the feature would scroll you to the post you exited at instead of the first one you clicked on.

One of the stupidest things I've heard.

I also would like to attach the bluesky repost I found this from:
